Aromas are oxidized hops pale malt Pine resin and a little bit of citrus. Flavors are like nose also wet cardboard and Bittersweet. Okay body and slightly bitter finish. One and done here.

Pour is a hazy copper with a large white head. Aroma is Some sweeter malt with some pine hops. Flavor is caramel malt with some old school pine and bitter hops. A little too much malt and not enough hop presence. This is not the IPA for me.

Canned 6/28, drunk 7/29/18.
Copper-golden-brass. Light haze with a small, white head that fades quickly to a ring.
Soft citrus is decidedly vague, mild, not hugely aromatic and backed by strong biscuit and cracker. Light pepper, herbs and a bit of PNW character with lightly fruity yeast and maybe a pinch of alcohol heat.
Again in the mouth it's softly citrusy without a big flavor profile. Very well-attenuated and dry with biscuit and cracker. Like drinking a pinch of honey with cracker malt and orange essence. There just isn't much here. I think the cans sat warm, so it's nice there's no oxidation or infection. Guess the flavor fell off pretty quickly in 30 days. But it's fine, clean, mindless.

Keg at BD Oxford. It pours hazy orange - amber with a decent white head. The aroma is sweet, fresh, sticky, tangy, juicy, orange marmalade, peach, piney and orange blossom. The taste is dry upfront, rather bitter, pine needles, resin, orange marmalade, peachy, kumquat, zesty, pithy, grapefruit, peppery spice, straw and grass with a dry, zesty finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Quite bright and fruity. Decent stuff.

Keg at BD Soho, 03/08/18. Lightly hazed golden orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is orange pith, grass, toasted bread, melon, light grapefruit. Taste comprises orange pith, melon, toasted grains, light pine, hint of grapefruit, light mango. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced hop bitterness. Middle of the road kind of an IPA ... ok but nothing I'd return to ... lacks hop presence especially as it's approaching DIPA status !

16.07.2018, 1 pint can @ summer house in Bl�vand:
Nice fizzy-creamy mediumlasting head, cloudy. Aroma is slightly sweet grassy, wet leafs, flowers, hay, minerals, light malts, hops, fruit stones, sap, dried fruits, moss. Taste is slightly dry sour-ish grassy, weeds, leafs, hay, flowers, minerals, fruit stones, light malts, bark, sap, moss, soil, citrus peel. Medium to longlasting bitterness, slightly watery and harsh grassy mouthfeel. Fair enough, kind of boring.
